02:05 — Google Cloud has been working with Deutsche Bank on a 10-year megadeal centered around innovation and infrastructure. Oracle has been migrating what will be 7,000 databases for Deutsche Bank, to Exadata Cloud@Customer database service. This brings the total cloud databases that Oracle is running on Exadata Cloud@Customer to 10,00 instances.
03:11 — In the multi-cloud world, where the goal is “multi-cloud harmony,” Bob says it is essential that companies and tech vendors know how to master these skills to meet the needs of customers.
03:50 — “Customers are certainly going to be putting this at the top of their priority list,” notes Bob. In today’s world, it is unrealistic to think that businesses will live in any other than a multi-cloud world.
